The healthcare industry is in the midst of an evolution from volume to value, but it will be a long time before we can say that the old model is behind us. As I wrote in my previous post, this evolution isn’t an overnight transformation but rather a slow burn. This is forcing medtech companies to have “a foot in both worlds:” They must continue partnering with clinical stakeholders while addressing the emerging needs of commercial stakeholders, but at a pace that's in sync with their own evolution. Sometimes that pace is extremely rapid and sometimes feeling a bit more glacial.
